May 2, 2025,Vennbahn von Montenau bis Troisvierges1
Today, my second Vennbahn loop.
Very beautiful, with a few more climbs and downhills than on the trip to Roetgen, and often through small, picturesque villages. I also made a detour to the Vennbahn tunnel, which was closed due to the bat habitat.


Unfortunately, Komoot stopped again.

Similar weather to yesterday, around 20 degrees. I drove this section of the Vennbahn in 2022, when cleanup work from the flood year of 2021 was still going on, in particular an arched bridge was under construction at the time. It's now finished and beautiful.

The tour is very different from the route St. Vith - Monschau. There are some steep passages (up to 10%), the landscape is characterized by meadows, forest and some streams that are crossed again and again. The character of the moor is missing.
The tunnel, which is closed due to numerous species of bats, is the highest point - in …

From the campsite we went directly to Waimes via hilly but little-used country roads. After coffee and croissants for breakfast, we drove straight onto the Vennbahn cycle path; first a short stretch in the direction of Monschau and then turn off at the junction in the direction of Troisvierges.
In bright sunshine we enjoyed the beautiful landscape, some with great …

What a beautiful day. 🤣
The best cycling weather, first we went 30 km to Luxembourg and then back to Belgium to St. Vith / Rodt (German or not yet?) with a cool blonde.
Yes and we climbed over 1,100 meters today - and I'm particularly proud of my wife 🤗

Unfortunately, it rained during the last 40km, which somewhat dampened the fun.

First part of the route from St.Vith -Wemperhardt very difficult and only accessible with MTB! Vennbahnweg excellent. !
